WATER SPRAY APPLIED LOOSE-FILL INSULATION
20210146387 · 2021-05-20 ·

According to an embodiment, a method of applying loose-fill insulation within a cavity is provided. The method includes blowing loose-fill insulation particles into a cavity of a structure to install the loose-fill insulation within the cavity and thereby insulate the structure. The method also includes applying water (e.g., water mist) to the loose-fill insulation particles so that a moisture content of the installed loose-fill insulation is between about 2% and 20%. The water aids in retaining the loose-fill insulation particles within the cavity without requiring the use of an enclosure member that encloses the cavity and the loose-fill insulation is substantially free of a water soluble adhesive material that adheres the loose-fill insulation particles together within the cavity.

ROBOTISED CONSTRUCTION SYSTEM

A robotised construction system is provided that includes a cartesian robot that can be automatically lifted as the construction is becoming higher, that is provided with a system of robotic supply of the materials and of the electric and electronic installations and that is provided with specific fabrication tools which work some by the contribution of layers of fluid construction materials. In a cement-based usage in which the cement is setting and having been deposited, by projection of these same materials and others by forming and placing construction elements in a determined position.

Smart Spray Foam Depth Sensor

SPF (spray polyurethane foam) insulation applied in a commercial or residential building is an amazing but costly construction product. One reason is that application of SPF insulation requires large investment capital equipment and a specialized crew for each job. The work is further made difficult because determination of the performance and quality characteristics of the performed work is subjective and still dependent on only primitive tools for normal routine examination. We worked to solve this problem by designing, building, and testing a portable measurement and evaluation system capable of reading any, and all SPF substrates with reliable accuracy and repeatability. With this tool, the applicator or inspector can now efficiently and accurately determine the performance and quality characteristics of the spray foam job and make smart strategic decisions on-demand. Using our system, the average applicator can improve his productivity by 15% per job, can reduce his chemical consumption by 10% per job and the improve overall quality metric of the job. Using our system, the average inspector can reduce the inspection time by 80% per job and can increase the accuracy of his inspection by 20% per job.
